About The Position

Joining Collins Aerospace isn’t just about finding a job; it’s about embarking on a journey to redefine the future of aerospace technology. Collins Aerospace, an RTX company, is a leader in technologically advanced and intelligent solutions for the global aerospace and defense industry. Collins Aerospace has the capabilities, comprehensive portfolio, and expertise to solve customers’ toughest challenges and to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving global market. This is a high-impact opportunity for an experienced Earned Value Management (EVM) professional who thrives in a complex, fast-paced defense program environment. The Senior EVM Cost Analyst will serve as a key leader within the program’s business management team, responsible for ensuring cost, schedule, and performance integrity across a major cost-reimbursable, cost-redeterminable contract. This role demands technical mastery, independent judgment, and the ability to communicate clearly and confidently with peers, program leadership, and external stakeholders.
